Devinder Singh “Happy” Or Bhola’s Aide Arrested

The police officials on April 16 detained Bathinda’s Devinder Singh “Happy” as adviser of global drug smuggler and fired Punjab DSP Jagdish Singh Bhola.

From “Happy”, who is the resident of Thermal Colony at Lehra Mohabbat near Bathinda, the police officials claim to have grabbed 8.50 kg ephedrine, a chemical substance for heroin. In the former heroin seizure scam, thus far, Bhola and fired sub-inspector Sarabjit Singh continue to be absconding.

Senior superintendent of police HS Mann stated, “The Fatehgarh Sahib station house officer, Devinder Attri, headed the group that grabbed Devinder Singh on the Chandigarh road on April 16 after looking for his white Toyota Quails car and finding the heroin raw material inside. The ephedrine was in a bag.”

The Toyota Quails detained from Devinder Singh belongs to fired sub-inspector, who had sent him to distribute the ephedrine batch.

The police officials also detected two driving licenses on Devinder Singh, one of which was counterfeit. They filed a case under Sections 420 (betraying), 465 (penalty for falsification), 467 (forgery of valuable security), 468 (falsification for purpose of betraying), and 471 (utilizing a forged document as genuine) of the Indian Penal Code (IPC) and Sections 21 (punishment for breaking in relation to manufactured drugs and preparations) and 61 (confiscation of goods used for concealing illicit drugs or substances) of the Narcotic Drugs and Psychotropic Substances (NDPS) Act at Fatehgarh Sahib.

During police questioning, Devinder Singh had consented that that he had close ties with Anoop Singh Kahlon, Jagdish Singh Bhola, and Sarabjit Singh and had been engaged with them in narcotraffic and hawala racket, said the SSP.
